Sharing Fonts with editors

I am an Art Director for a publishing company. After I lay out an article in InDesign, the editors make the changes. I gave the Editors the same fonts I use in my lay out but when they open up the same file on their Computer it still comes up with missing fonts.
We are all on MACs and InDesign CS2.
I am using Berkeley oldstyle, the font that is coming up as missing is Berkeley.t1.
I am using style sheets if that helps.
Any info you can pass along will be a big help.
Tom

Part of the issue could be multiple fonts that share a name.
Such as Berkeley. There is the older Type 1 postscript version (T1) and the newer OpenType (OTF).
If you are using the T1 version, and the other person has the OTF (or it and the T1 version) installed the this problem can arise.
Your InDesign sees one copy of the font and calls it Berkeley Oldstyle
The other machine potentially sees two copies of the font, and calls them Berkeley (T1) and Berkeley (OTF).
The names don't match, even though the fonts do, so InDesign is unsure what font to use.
I have a similar issue that crops up in that some of the desigers here have Eurostile (OTF) OpenType and others have the older Eurostile (TT) true type
font installed. Becomes annoying working on the files when there is a constant shuffling of fonts to the other format.

  • Unable to open/edit shared calendar with Editor permissions

    I have created an account, and have shared the calendar to the entire office. Some of the individuals have either been unable to accept the invite as it says "The folder you selected is not available". Some can view the calendar, but are unable
    to create appointments. Their addresses are set as Editor, but it continues to give this error.
    Is there something I am missing?

    Hi,
    If these users are working in Outlook Cached Mode, please let them switch to Outlook Online Mode to check the result. If the function works fine in Online Mode, removing and re-adding the calendar may help since it seems to be a cache issue.
    If the issue persists, could you please detail this scenario a little bit? I've seen Office 365 users used to meet this issue and it was resolved by installing an update:
    Outlook 2013 The folder you selected is not available

  • AIR crashes on loading swf with 'Imported for runtime sharing' fonts

    Hello everybody,
    I have a trouble with an AIR application developped with Flex but the error seems to come from the Flash/AIR, after some searches a staff member (Flex harUI) said me that I could find more help for my trouble here.
    I'm developping an AIR application which loads an external swf. This swf contains 'Imported for runtime sharing' fonts from another swf to reduce its size.
    When the AIR application has finished to load (see message below) the whole application crashes without giving any error message except the usual "Process terminated unexpectedly" error message.
    End Loading: [SWF] C:\Users\dev02\myProject\index.swf - 83,930 bytes after decompression
    Error Message:
    Process terminated unexpectedly.
    Launch command details:  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.6.0\bin\adl.exe" -runtime "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.6.0\runtimes\air\win" "C:\Users\dev02\Adobe Flash Builder 4\Languages_Editor\bin-debug\Language_Editor-app.xml" "C:\Users\dev02\Adobe Flash Builder 4\Languages_Editor\bin-debug"
    I use Flash Builder 4 (build 272416) with sdk 4.6.
    Full discussion here.
    I tried to load the external swf with the most basics codes, it works with a Flash web app but not with a Flex/AIR app or a Flash/AIR app.
    Thanks for the help !

    Thanks for the anwser.
    In fact, I cannot specify a swc because my main application is an editor of sub-applications where each one has its own library.
    The bug remains when sharing a simple MovieClip too.
    Maybe, if I explain my project it will be a little more clear.
    I'm developping a multi-languages module / application.
    For each module, I have an external xml for texts. So in order to add a new language we don't need to recompile, just to change texts in the xml. But, I had to externalize my fonts, (imagine if each swf contains the whole characters set like latin, cyrillic, etc.).
    And then, I have my main text editor application above the module, which loads texts xmls and a preview of the page where we need to change the text. (This is where it crashes, during the process of loading the preview).
    My editor works great for translating, changing texts, modify images but without the preview, what is really frustrating.
    (not so ergonomic, I know...)
    I hope it will help you to understand my trouble.
    regards

    The dropdown list probably uses the internal font name, and I think the only way to change this is with a font editor, like FontForge or FontLab.
    Thanks again Tom. You're right. This seems to be the problem. I need a font editor to change the name. I downloaded Fontforge but couldn't figure out how to use it and Fontlab is too pricey for what I need. In any case, while searching for downloads I read that changing font names is not recommended. It just puzzles me that if I access the font via Mac HD/Library/Fonts, I get the name epgyobld.ttf yet it displays EPSON ëæçsèëëÃÇa in font book and application drop down font lists.
    However, I chanced upon a work around in another forum. It involves creating a new font collection folder for each font I want to rename but cannot rename. The new folder is given the name I want and the un-renameable font is put into it e.g. I've placed EPSON ëæçsèëëÃÇa into a new collection folder called EPSON-FUTO-GYOSHO. It means having 8 new folders each containing one font - clumsy but at least I can now find the font when I need it..

  • Unicode Symbols in Shared Font Libraries

    I am working on a project using an unusual unicode glyph set.
    The language is Salish, a Native American language of the
    Northwestern United States. I can get the glyphs to show up when I
    embed the unicode font directly into the text field with the unique
    characters added to the embedded font list, but they don't show up
    when I use the same font that is included through a shared font
    library. Is there a way to make sure the font library I create by
    making font symbols contains and displays the glyphs I need?
    Thanks.

    I've never found a way. Sorry. If you do I would love to find
    out about it. Now Salish that is some language!

  • Sharing fonts in flash

    Hi,
    is it possible for sharing fonts across different movies? We
    use embedded fonts in our movie and since we have many of them, it
    is making the movie size bigger and longer time to load. We wanted
    to check if we can embed a font in a movie and then import that
    movie in my main movie so that we can still use the embedded font.
    We use a textarea field which is dynamically created using
    'createTextField' command in action sript. What we have in place is
    something similar to a Rich Text editor where we will have the
    embedded font in a dropdown and selection of the font will change
    the style of the text in the textarea. Pls help me in fixing the
    problem. Appreciate any help.

  • How to include certain shared fonts (AS2 on CS3)

    Hey everyone,
    I have a project which uses three different embedded fonts within it across a number of different swfs. As a result i have a separate fonts.swf file which contains the fonts and then i share them (so as not to have to load them within each swf file). The problem is that the three fonts can change depending on certain variables passed into the main swf file so the fonts.swf file actually contains about 12 fonts. Which three fonts are used are defined within the variables that are passed into the main swf file. Whilst this works fine it means that each time i have to load all 12 fonts which makes for a large filesize and takes quite a while to download on a slow connection (plus i want to add more fonts in the future).
    I can't for the life of me work out how to dynamically embed shared fonts so i only have to load the 3 fonts that are actually needed. I am currently using this method but this involves manually placing a movieclip on the stage (or exporting it in the first frame). I can't see how to do this using AS2 (which would allow me to create a separate swf for each font). Similarly if i use a shared library i'm not sure how i would go about only importing certain libraries using AS2 (rather than doing it manually).
    I would be incredibly grateful if anyone could point me towards the right way of doing this as i'm not sure what to do at this stage.
    Thanks so much for your help in advance,
    Dave

    To correctly use bold and italic style you have to embed a separate font for each in the library and set the font style in the font properties.
    With the TextFormat whole text is put on one font so you have to to the following then:
    txtExample.htmlText = "<font face='bold'>I am bold</font> <font face='italic'>I am italic</font> <font face='default'>I am default</font>".
    There is no other way than to use the font face property in html text to have different text styles within one TextField.
    ("bold" and "italic" are the linkage ids in the library)

  • Shared fonts character set

    Hi all,
    I've got a big problem with font handling in flash. I'm
    currently developing a international multilingual site.
    I'm using shared fonts to be able to load different
    font-files for different languages.
    My problem is how to create font files with different
    character sets?
    If I create a font symbol in the library and assign a Class
    to the symbol and check Export for ActionScript it works fine for
    Latin1 ( I think it's Latin1 ).
    I can see in the size report that the correct characters are
    exported.
    Now let's say I wanted to export a file with Thai characters.
    If I add a dynamic textfield on stage, set font to my font-symbol
    in the library and embed Thai characters and export I still get
    Latin1 characters.
    If I then uncheck Export for ActionScript end export I get
    the correct characters. The problem is that if I dont have any
    Class tied to the font I cant access it in my FontManager class. My
    FontManager loads and registers the fonts available to the app. I
    then query the FontManager for the "bold" font or "regular" etc
    etc.
    For this to work need a reference to the class to be able to
    get the properties of the font, fontName, fontStyle and fontType. I
    also have to register the font class with Font.registerFont( Class
    I've even tried to change system language om my computer
    without luck.
    Any ideas anyone?

  • Font Agent Pro- sharing font sets

    Hi,
    I m in need of a font manager that shares fonts within the LAN.
    I tried Font Agent Pro, it works well.
    But once fonts are shared between 2 systems(say A and B),A has 15 fonts, i need to activate 10 of them in one stretch instead of activating individually so that all 15 fonts are accessible in system B.
    Just like sharing fonts in sets, i need to activate fonts(in sharing tab) in sets. Is it possible?
    When i share fonts of 2 sets, they do not appear as sets in the shared system. Instead all fonts from 2 sets are mixed up and they r shown.
    In the shared system, is it possible to activate one set of fonts(shared)?
    If someone has worked with Font Agent Pro, please help me...
    Thank You

  • How do I use Edge Web Fonts with Muse?

    How do I use Edge Web Fonts with Muse - is it an update to load, a stand alone, how does it interface with Muse? I've updated to CC but have no info on this.

    Hello,
    Is there a reason why you want to use Edge Web Fonts with Adobe Muse?
    Assuming you wish to improve typography of your web pages, you should know that Muse is fully integrated with Typekit. This allows you to access and apply over 500 web fonts from within Muse. Here's how you do it:
    Select a text component within Muse, and click the Text drop-down.
    Select Add Web Fonts option, to pop-open the Add Web Fonts dialog.
    Browse and apply fonts per your design needs.
    Muse also allows you to create paragraph styles that you can save and apply to chunks of text, a la InDesign. Watch this video for more information: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/using-typekit-with-adobe-muse/

  • [SOLVED] Lousy fonts with .chm viewer for Linux

    I installed the .chm file viewer HelpExplorer 3.0 in both Windows XP and Arch Linux (chm = compiled HTML help file).  In Windows XP, with default fonts installed, the fonts in text read with this viewer appear crisp, sharp and anti-aliased.  In Arch with KDE 3.5.7, on the other hand, the fonts appear fuzzy, grainy and don't seem to be anti-aliased, in contrast with their appearance in all other apps (except for a few such as Dillo) which render text good-looking, sharp and anti-aliased.
    HelpExplorer for Linux was provided as a tarball that included a precompiled 'helpexplorer' binary.  The program doesn't seem to allow for customizing font settings.
    The following fonts are installed in Arch (in /usr/share/fonts/):
    ttf-bitstream-vera-1.10-5 is installed by default
    gsfonts 8.11-4 is installed by default
    PostScript Type 1 fonts installed: Century Schoolbook, Nimbus, URW Bookman, URW Gothic, URW Palladio
    ttf-ms-fonts-2.0-1 (Microsoft TTF: Andale Mono, Arial, Comic, Courier, Georgia, Impact, Tahoma, Times New Roman, Trebuchet)

    What do I need to do to improve the font appearance in this program in Linux?
    Last edited by RobF (2007-10-02 18:06:46)

    I found a solution of sorts by installing and running the Windows version of HelpExplorer in Wine or Crossover.  There is still very little control over fonts but when I enlarge the default font (with 2x CTRL-+) I do get a nice-looking anti-aliased Times New Roman font, and this solution would be my preferred way of reading .chm files in Linux (i.e. better than KchmViewer or Xchm).
    Recap of the problem:
    1. The .chm viewer HelpExplorer Viewer 3.0 when installed in Windows XP renders fonts crisp and clear and anti-aliased.
    2. The Linux version of HelpExplorer Viewer 3.0 (delivered as a precompiled executable in a tarball) doesn't render fonts antialiased, regardless of what I tried, and they look grainy and unattractive.
    3. The Windows version of HelpExplorer Viewer 3.0 when installed and run in Arch in Wine or Crossover does render the default font they offer (looks like Times New Roman) fairly crisp and clear and anti-aliased, at least at the enlarged setting.
    Can someone explain to me what might be going on?  Why is it that the Linux version cannot render fonts anti-aliased when the Windows version running in the emulator in Linux can?  Is there something that I have to change in my fonts config, fonts location, symlinks or path to get the anti-aliased fonts to work in HelpExplorer in Linux?

  • How do I stop sharing mail with other users on my computer

    How do I stop sharing mail with other users on my Macbook pro?

    You may have to set up different user accounts in the computer if you wish to
    continue sharing the computer among other people, and only use the Mail app.
    Otherwise, if you use a webmail such as yahoo, gmail, or other, just use a browser
    and login each time; then there is no saving of your email to the computer as such.
    I've never used an email client software, nor had an ISP based email account. So
    my numerous computers have never downloaded email into software. No loss.
    But the answers do include setting up extra user accounts, not admin level, so the
    other users do not mess with the operating system; a standard account or just a
    guest account to use a browser to access web-based login email accounts, works.
    There are third-party email client for OS X, some are free applications, others are
    part of a larger browser product, such as SeaMonkey, & other Mozilla derivatives.
    They provide an email segment or client aspect; unlike Firefox that's a browser.
    Setup information should be within the Help viewer in the computer itself. Or by a
    simple search online, including the OS X version and any email client software
    your computer may have installed. Some browser software includes email client.
    Also there are several ways to go in this matter. I don't see questions, only answers.
    To learn how the Mail application works, if you want to import everyone's mail, then
    figure how to set up user accounts in the OS X. Or use web-mail & login by browser.
    Hopefully you can find the best solution for the unasked question.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Family sharing works with different regional accounts

    So I have my aple ID based in Ireland, and I just setup the family sharing option with my mom living in Portugal.
    Will she see all my purchases even if they are from my country? and more important: can she download them if they are country  store specific?
    Usually if you search for an app that is not available in your country you cannot download it unless you have an account for that specific country.

    All your Applications should be in /Applications folder by default to be accessible to all users and to be seen by updaters. If you created an "Applications" folder within your Home folder, then only you will be able to use those Applications. Otherwise there should be no permissions issues.
    Check Permissions Inside a Home folder:
    • Navigate to /Users/~(Home)/Library.
    • Get Info (Command - i) on folders for apps you are having problems with.
    • Open the "Ownership & permissions" disclosure triangle.
    • Make sure the user is the owner, with "read and write" access.
    • Click on "apply to all"
    • If this is correct, open the "Applications Support" folder and do the same procedure (Command+I) for the folders with the names of the applications you are having trouble with.
